      Ah here, who’s mixed up posting headlines destined for Waterford Whispers?

    3. And the most depressing element is that I just know not a single damn thing will be learned from this colossal, globally record-breaking farce.

      It has genuinely left me wondering if we’re capable of building anything ourselves anymore without making a total prácás of it all

      The average lifespan for a government TD to serve as Minister of Health is about 3 years. In 2 years time this one will be shuffled off to some other government department in the usual cabinet reshuffle and some other underqualified, glorified county councillor will be rolled out to tell lies for another 3 years.

      If you ever wanted an example of kiddie glove treatment by the media besides our housing debacle, this is it. It should be a non stop, deafening crescendo of criticism at this point, but instead we barely get the mildest of timid little peeps here or there.

      By the time it’s open. Some of that building will need to be renovated

      Government accusations against the opposition of there being a magic money tree seem somewhat trite when they have discovered the power of a monetary black hole.

      Remember when they build that hospital in China in 3 days at the beginning of the covid pandemic? Yeah.

      Those rumours about HSE not having enough staff to open are looking more accurate by the month.

      Who is to say when it’ll be right. We’ll know when we know. And sure isn’t that grand.

    11. Well at least the Minister of Health at the time is no longer holding any position of authority anym… Oh. Oh no!

    12. It’s pretty mad that it’s so far overdue, and it’s so far over budget, and yet they still can’t tell us with anything even resembling confidence when it’s actually going to be finished.

      What an absolute farce of a project.

      Watched her piece on Prime Time. The vibe it gave was two people talking about how shocking/poor it is that the deadline has been missed 18 times. McInerney put a question to Carroll-McNeill along the lines of „but how can this have been allowed to happen?“

      Her response was basically „I know right? How could this have happened?“ McInerney, all credit to her, did not push back enough on this.

      Granted she is inherited this problem that predates her tenure (and was an issue for two previous ministers that went on to be Taoisigh), she is in the role now. The response she gave is not enough.

      There is no accountability in this country. The health service is a farce from top to bottom.

      I work as a healthcare professional, in a county that is short-staffed and a service with an ever expanding waiting list. I have interviewed for 4 different panels over the last 3 years in my Integrated Health Area (IHA comprised of a number of counties.) The number of jobs that have come through the four panels? 3. The percentage of staff in my profession that are agency within this IHA? 56%.

      The number of managers hired in the last 6 months for the „restructuring“ of the health service in this IHA? Around 16. None of whom will be dealing with anything clinical.

      More chiefs than Indians.

    14. She literally just blamed BAM for everything in that RTE interview, then they blamed the design team at CHI. All the while the state kept paying over the money. Zero Accountability
